Militants in the Gaza Strip fired two rockets at southern Israeli coastal cities on Monday, but one was intercepted by Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system and the other fell into the sea.

No one claimed responsibility for Monday's rocket launches against Ashkelon, a town north of the Gaza strip, Reuters reports. The Israeli Air Force bombed two concealed rocket launchers in northern Gaza. There were no casualties, according to a military spokeswoman.
